Abstract

Apparatus for regulating an engine parameter, in particular the output power or the speed of rotation of an internal combustion engine, wherein there are provided two or more adjustable devices by way of which the engine parameter to be regulated can be influenced. There are provided two or more separate regulators, each of which regulates a respective one of the adjustable devices in dependence on the detected actual value of the engine parameter and a predeterminable reference value. There is also provided a change-over switching device by way of which selectively one of the regulators can be activated for regulating the adjustable device associated therewith.
